Senate should extend middle class tax cuts: Biden

– 32 mins ago

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Vice President Joe Biden on Friday urged the Senate to vote to extend tax cuts for middle class Americans, following the example of the House of Representatives.

Biden addressed reporters at the White House during a meeting with Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and budget director Jack Lew, who are leading talks with congressional leaders over a deal to extend Bush-era tax cuts that expire at the end of the year.

Biden: November jobs report 'disappointing'
Biden says jobs report is 'disappointing,' urges lawmakers to extend unemployment insurance

On Friday December 3, 2010, 12:28 pm

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Vice President Joe Biden says a weak November jobs report is "disappointing" and a sign that the economic recovery is fragile.

Biden says the uptick in the jobless rate to 9.8 percent means it is critical that Congress extend unemployment benefits before the end of the year. He also urged the Senate to follow the House in voting to continue tax cuts for the middle class.

1. Go down to the Floor, Joe! Point fingers. Give one of your impassioned speeches,
let them know that you're hip to their tricks and they're an embarrassment to the United States Senate. Kick some ass, Joe!
